Kibana is unable to connect to ES

General Feedback

I am using OpenDistro for ES & Kibana with filebeat. I’ve created a docker-compose.yml as per given example file. I can run ES & Kibana both using Docker, but my Kibana is not talking to ES and because of that I’m not getting any index on Kibana. I found below relevant messages in log:

kb-node | {“type”:“log”,“@timestamp”:“2019-03-18T03:19:48Z”,“tags”:[“warning”,“elasticsearch”,“admin”],“pid”:1,“message”:“Unable to revive connection: https://es_node:9200/”}
kb-node | {“type”:“log”,“@timestamp”:“2019-03-18T03:19:48Z”,“tags”:[“warning”,“elasticsearch”,“admin”],“pid”:1,“message”:“No living connections”}

Please find docker-compose.yml here.

I got it fixed. It was docker-compose versioning issue.

Change multitenancy.enabled setting in kibana to false. Use external yml file for that and then map it to docker volume.

docker-compose.yml
